Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable
release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test
with it so we can work on getting it fixed. You can find out more about
the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again
and we appreciate your help.

Title:
  gnome-volume-control : master volume slider always displays "100%"

Status in “gnome-media” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-media

  Just switched from Ubuntu 9.04 to 10.10, I notice that the simple GUI
  to adjust volumes has disappeared, now we have to use the full blown,
  tabbed sound preferences UI in order to adjust volumes, what a bloat
  :-(

  Anyway, trying to get used to it, I noticed some problems :

  - the main/master slider at the top of the UI, always reads "100%", no
  matter where the slider is. Left, middle, right.. it just reads "100%"
  no matter what.

  - The new  panel applet sees some regression too: using the mouse
  wheel on it to adjust volume, doesn't display the % any more, which I
  found rather practical to adjust volume quickly and accurately in a
  hurry. Without any indication, it's now a hit and miss thing, so it
  forces me to click on the applet to display the slider in order to see
  what I am doing exactly. That's extra overhead which was not necessary
  before, where has Gnome's legendary usability gone :-(
